      Thankfully I was not taught biology by a creationist but a super intelligent dude who was conned into doing Teach 4 America right out of school and hated all of us with a passion because 95% of my classmates and teachers were creationists lol

        Only good teach4America teacher.

        I fucking hate that program. They're trying to de-professionalize teaching (well, they were, because they've succeeded) so they can kill teachers unions, lower wages, and make it easier to teach all kinds of wacky Bazinga/Fash bullshit.

          :data-laughing: He was my second favorite teacher in HS - had him for the 2 years he was in the program and he made sure to tell us every chance he got that T4A was shit and he wouldn't have chosen to move from Boston to our hick town of ~20,000 willingly. Dude did truly care about teaching - but you could see the pain in his eyes whenever a kid with a lifted kitted-out Ford F150 asked him why he biked to school if our town didn't have any bike lanes in the roads.
